TIE Austin Statesman commenting
Oh suggestion that the A. Il NJ. Col
lege be abolished, says that "if that
could be done, there would be less
fuss AVID no biennial periodical grab
at the State University fund.-" The
trouble with the Statesman is that Il Q
University located at Austin wants TO
absorb all the fund for higher cduca-
ton, and leave the a. IL NJ. College
located away from Austin without
any State aid. The Agricultural Il
Mechanical College if properly nur-
tured and sustained will be of far
more practical advantage to the youth
of the State than the University.
Both are needed; but the one should
not be injured by partisan friends OF
the other. There is a demand for the
A. II M. College which the University
with the entire State aid could not fill.
There is a population in Texas inter-
ested in the education of their sons in
agriculture and mechanism which will
rise up and rcbuke any power which
will dare to stfle this institution, the
objection TO which is that il has no
been made as practical and thorough
as il was intended to be or as the peo-
pie Of the State want it to be.

State Treasurer vincent Carried Back

MONTGOMERY, Ala, March III
IL. Vincent, the de.aulting State treas
uIer of Alabama, has at last been cap.
tIred by E. c. Ray, a deputy sheriff OF
| Parker county, Texas. The prisoner
arrived here Tuesday in charge OF
Ray and was taken to jail. The arrest
was made at Big Sandy, Wood county,
Texas, on last Sunday morning. Vim
cent stepped of a train unconcerncdly,
entirely unsuspecting apprehension
When he was confronted by Deputy
Ray, with cooked revolver in his
hand, Vincent, thinking the officer
was highwayman, Immediately
threw up his hands, stating that he
had no money about him Ray said he
wanted him for the crime of embez-
element and not for his money. Vim
cent at once broke completely down,
cried like child and begged the Of
ficcr not to take him back to his old
home handcuffed, promising to waive
the formality of waiting for a requisi-
ton from the governor of Alabama.
The officer complied with the request,
and brought him direct TO Montgom-
cry. When the news spread that Vim
cent was brought back the excitement
was great. Large crowds gathered at
the jail to catch glimpse of the pris-
oucr, and knots of men assembled on
the street and discussed the arrest and
bringing back of the noted fugitive.
1t has long been suspected here
that Vincent had fled to
Mexico, occasionally making trips to
Texas, where his family is said to live.
They left here year or so after his
flight, and, it is supposed, went to
Texas, where they have been ever since
Vinccnt's flight on Jan. 20, 1888 His
embezzlemcnt of S250C00 of State fl
nances, which he lost in speculation
and gambling, ana the Efforts
of the detectives TO find him
are matters of history. 1t remained
for simple deputy sheriff, assisted by
the active cooperation of the present
State executive, TO finally run to the
ground this most noted Ala
bama's defaultcrs. Vincent al
ways commanded the respect of
his fellow-men, was very popular and
even now commands the sympathy of
the people here, on account of his in
tcresting family. Vincent has broke
down completely, is haggard and
worn, and looks twenty years older
than when he left here. His trial on
indictment containing twenty-five
counts for embezzlemen,, will
come up at the present term of the
Circuit court now in session, and is
awaited by the pubic. 1t is
that some startling revela-
lions will be produced at TIE trial, as
Vincent will unbosom himself.
